Summary: Love, Love, Love
Comment: This has been the BEST purchase of any kitchen appliance I've made in several years. Every loaf of bread I've made has turned out wonderful. I started using just the recipes in the book provided which were all really good. I went to allrecipes.com and found several recipes there and have tried them and they also have worked great. Just make sure you put the ingredients in the same order that the book has you do them. I always use bread flour and you need to get your measurements right. I think both these things are the key to getting a great loaf of bread. This past weekend I used the dough cycle for the first time and made the best dinner rolls ever.
You may have to get a gym membership because the bread is so good, you will want to bake it a lot.

Summary: Makes delicious bread
Comment: After returning 2 breadman machines within 2 weeks, I purchased the Oster (and it was cheaper). I am very pleased with it. My husband and son like the long loaf style (my old machine was the tall loaf style). The country white bread recipe on the normal bake cycle works perfectly. I have not tried the other cycles (bread in less than an hour just doesn't seem right - and you have to adjust the recipe).
I always remove the bread as soon as it is done, fold it up in a dish towel and let it cool on a wire rack. It turns out beautifully. My husband baked a loaf one day and forgot to get it right away - by the time he remembered, the bread had cooled in the pan. The crust was much thicker and very hard, but the bread still tasted delicious. I also tried my own recipe which worked well once I adjusted for the yeast (for 1.5 pound loaf - no more than 2 tsp of yeast - just a quarter tsp more and it falls). I am very, very pleased for the price. The motor sounds a little weak, but so far has kneaded the dough well (I only bake 1.5 lb loaves). Sometimes a little flour is left in the corners, but it makes no difference in the flavor or constituency of the bread.
A note of caution - make sure that you are following the correct recipe for the type of setting. The recipes are separated according to express-bake and normal bake. The express-bake recipes will not work on the normal cycle, nor will the normal bake recipes work on the express-bake cycle.

Summary: Yummy and Easy
Comment: I got this breadmaker -- my first -- from my local FreeCycle group. I'm very happy with it, though I have made mistakes. In my first loaf, I hand mixed the ingredients and then realized I still had to add the yeast -- a crucial mistake that would have caused a huge mess, I'm told. I started over from scratch. For that round, I added too little water because I didn't realize that 1 and 5/8 cups was more than 1 1/2 cups. (Stupid fractions. Why not just say 13 ounces of water, Oster? That's a measuring cup I actually have.) The bread came out with the consistency of sand. So with my third try, I got it right with a little help from the Hill Billy Housewife's blog. Now I have this great loaf, and I'm ready to bake another loaf before I hit the hay tonight. (On the third loaf, I also tried the delay setting (adding 20 minutes) and found it worked just fine, and so I'll keep experimenting with that.) Since I got mine free, I couldn't complain about the missing manual. I found it online, and that was a huge plus. (Thanks Oster! That kind of makes up for my public school education.)

Summary: Great Breadmaker! It's better than my old White Westinghouse
Comment: I had an seven year old White Westinghouse bread machine that eventually broke. We went out an purchase the Oster 5838 because it was a horizontal bread machine. We had a vertical and I wanted to try something different this time. This machine has worked well. So far I've only baked 2 loaves of regular white bread. Both came out better than my old bread machine loaves! The bread was wonderful. We really like this one. I would recommend this one to anyone who wants to bake their own bread. I liked it so much I took a few pictures to show the product and the bread! Enjoy!
